Keyword validation allows you to mark keyword as correct. Validated keywords appear as green instead of blue in the keywords view.

To validate a keyword use the **Validate keyword** panel.

> 💡 **Tip:** If you validate a keyword you are confirming that not only is the keyword spelt correctly, but also that the case is correct. If a keyword is validated all future keywords that match will have their case automatically corrected to match the validated version.
